My Yamaha EF3000iSeB (3500 watts instant) would only reliably start my Coleman Mach 3 (15k) in cool conditions. It would almost never start it Temps above 100 degrees and would stall the generator at high altitudes.
I installed the Micro-Air and it not only solved my Yamaha problem in my old camper, but I no longer carry that monster with the new camper (I moved the Micro-Air to the new camper). I have a Honda 2000 that I carry for emergencies and it will run one 15k with no issues provided I watch what else is running.
If I parallel two Hondas 2000s, I can run BOTH air conditioners (but so far that has just been an academic exercise to prove that I could).
